Chargers OLB Jarret Johnson is retiring from the NFL after 12 seasons.

The No. 109 overall pick of the 2003 draft, Johnson spent the first nine years of his career with the Ravens before spending three seasons in San Diego. 132 of Johnson's 184 appearances were starts, including 14-of-15 in 2014. He finishes with 350 career tackles, 25.5 sacks and 11 forced fumbles. Johnson turns 34 in August. Tue, Feb 24, 2015 04:43:00 PM

Johnson is a role player at this stage of his career, but 2015 would be his age-34 season and it seems likely Johnson will be released anyhow due to a $5 million base salary. His salary cap number will be $7.5 million. Fri, Jan 2, 2015 02:37:00 PM

Johnson was previously scheduled to earn a $4 million salary and count $5.5 million against the cap in the third year of a four-year, $19 million deal. He'll now earn a $1 million base and $2 million signing bonus, clearing $1 million in cap space. The 32-year-old has recorded just 4.5 sacks in 26 games with San Diego. Johnson's strength is as an edge-setting run defender. Mon, Mar 10, 2014 07:34:00 PM

Stanley practiced fully and will start after missing the last three games. His return comes at a good time with Joe Flacco (questionable, shoulder) at less than 100 percent. The Ravens will be without RG Marshal Yanda (doubtful, shoulder) against the Jets.

Lewis is still highly unlikely to play this week, but it is a quick return for a player who was given a six-week timetable in mid-November. Coach John Harbaugh said Monday Lewis was still a "ways away," but it seems like he could have a shot to return next week. Marshal Yanda made the switch to left guard with Lewis out with Vladimir Ducasse filling in on the right side.
